I’ve been reading way too many historical novels, because I read “called on” and thought, oh that’s nice of them to visit them after what they went through. 🤦
That’s because people got their words all mixed up. Back in the day, “is not it” would absolutely be the normal way to phrase “isn’t it.”
It sounds weird today of course.
Did we time travel? Are we now in Victorian England where an out-of-wedlock grandchild is some kind of scandal?? LOL
